He has been showing off his youthful energy by communicating with fans through ceremonies full of sense and SNS, causing many people to ‘become fans’.

Kwak Do-gyu, who has been living alone in Gwangju for two years, reveals his ‘Do-gyu House’, decorated with his favorite things such as clothes, hats, and perfume. He also revealed his special affection for his studio apartment, saying, “I got promoted to the first team right after living in this studio apartment”.
